Gameboy Advance SP!

That was T minus 15, IIRC. That one was okay, it was a cinch compared to Green Earth...

My favorite CO so far may be Colin, but I recently bought Nell so I think I'll try her out. Sonja rocks in FOW though. The only CO I hate is Lash because of her annoying personality. Toodles! :p
 
Sure. As you can see, there are three fronts. In the top front, capture the cities, and burst the seam on the right to reinforce the middle. With Andy's air force, wipe out the forces nearby, while staying out of missile range. Blow the seam the the far left with the bomber, so your airforce is striking the middle front from the right as well.

For Olaf in the middle front, advance westwards, and blow the two seams with your mid tanks. Throw all the A-Airs you got to the bottom front, and use the reinforcements from the top front to advance westwards, taking the cities with infantries in the process.

On the southern front, capture the airport and hold you're ground with you're A-Airs until reinforcements from above arrive. Once the bombers and b-copters are gone, the rest of the units are toast to fresh bombers from your airport.

Hopefully you can clear Flak's forces from the middle front in 6 days, giving you plenty of time to capture the cities. If you're worried about score, then destroy as many units as you can in one turn to help power, and join severely damaged units to help technique. Spamming T-Copters from the airport near the end will improve technique as well.
 
I love Advance Wars, my friend have it. We have a GBA SP each. He has a Silver one, and I got the Blue one.

I got Metroid Fusion and Mario Kart.

Gonna buy Advance Wars and Golden Sun later from the US for $20 each when I get my Credit Card.
 
Anyone here looking forward to Fire Emblem?

Planet Gamecube just put up some impressions of Fire Emblem, which is coming to the US on the GBA. For those who don't know, Fire Emblem is an extremely popular series in Japan that never reached the US until now. If anyone owns SSBM, Fire Emblem is where Marth and Roy are from.

There are seven in the series, and the one being brought to the US is the seventh, which is the first in the story. Seems very similar to Advance Wars and being made by the same company, only with more RPG elements within. Coming out in early November, I can't wait. :)

fire emblem sounds SO COOL!!! btw, Advance Wars & Advance Wars II are my favorite GBA games:D If only the console companys could take a hint that strategy games DO sell on consoles, considering how advance wars is one of the most bought games on the GBA

i hope to be getting an SP soon and trading in my old GBA:)

If Fire Emblem sells well, then more Fire Emblems will be ported, some definately will go to the Gamecube. :)

I wouldn't be suprised if they had an Advance Wars style game for the Gamecube or next-gen, seeing as the had them for the NES, SNES, and Gameboy
 
Terrible news...

I'VE LOST MY GBA SP! :cry:

My family and I moved to a new house three or so weeks ago, and by now we've unpacked and settled in, finding just about everything ... except for my GameBoy Advance SP and Sonic Advance.

Wish me luck in eventually finding it!
 
Why in the names of the gods would you pack your GBA? I certainly would have had it in hand, or atleast in pocket, during the moving process. But good luck in the search.

Well, there's plenty of other things you could say that about, and I have a limited number of hands. ;) But you're right; I should have been more careful. I just didn't see this coming...

What's strange is that I remember putting it in a plastic bag and then in a shopping bag, and then I found some of the stuff that was put with it, but not it. :hmm: Sigh... The longer the search goes on the longer it seems like I wasted $130 and about 25 hours of my time. Well, it could be worse; I'm lucky this didn't happen after I amassed a large collection of games and had played them quite a bit.
 
Good luck in the search Willj, chances are that the GBA SP will turn up when you least expect it.

Otherwise Cedric Greene is right, why didn't you keep it in your pocket? ;)
 
Anyone have Final Fantasy Tactics Advance? I heard from a friend it was good, but I've never played a Final Fantasy game (yes it's true) and not sure whether I should save my money or not...
 
My cousin works at EB, and he says there are way too many movies in it, which is plain stupid to have movies in a GBA game IMO.

I agree with that, but I rarely play my GBA on the go (usually only on vacation). I treat my GBA games the same as my GCN games, I play them both on my TV (I have a GBPlayer)
 
Got a GBA SP to play FFTA. So far, so good. :)

There're movies in FFTA? I must have missed them... :hmm:

Well, the intro was pretty long... It's probably because it's a GBA game so even though the cutscenes are short compared to other RPGs it's too long to play in ten minute bursts.
 
Yeah, I can only manage one clan battle during my lunch-break (the 1/2 hr portion apart fr actual eating), and only some planning and buying/equipping during the 10-15 mins' mass transit ride to work...

FFTA is definitely a game you need to sit down and play - not really for on the go playing... :)

You shld have seen the intro for FFX - movie-quality, IIRC at least 1/2 an hr long and even I think it's cool. :cool:

And Xenosaga has them regularly, at half-an-hour long each. :cool:
 
I don't got an SP yet, but when I do I plan on getting the silver, unless they release some more colors before I get one, I got my eye on the silver and the onyx colored ones...
